title: Meningioma without dural attachment in a child.
abstract: A case of posterior cranial fossa meningioma without dural attachment is presented. The patient was 8 years old. The tumour was mostly in the cerebellum and was presumably arising from the telechoroidea. Meningiomas without dural attachment are uncommon. They are rarer in the posterior fossa and in very young children.
